Message-ID: Hi All, On behalf of the NumPy team I am pleased to announce that NumPy 1.18.0rc1 has been released. In addition to the usual bug fixes, this NumPy release cleans up and documents the new random C-API, expires a large number of old deprecations, and improves the appearance and organization of the documentation. The Python versions supported are 3.5-3.8. This is the last NumPy release series that will support Python 3.5. The highlights of this release are: - the C-API for ``numpy.random`` has been defined and documented, - basic infrastructure for linking with 64 bit BLAS and LAPACK libraries, - many documentation improvements. Downstream developers should use Cython >= 0.29.14 for Python 3.8 support and OpenBLAS >= 3.7 to avoid wrong results on the Skylake architecture. The NumPy Wheels for this release can be downloaded from PyPI , source archives and release notes are available from Github . *Highlights* - The C-API for ``numpy.random`` has been defined and documented. - Basic infrastructure for linking with 64 bit BLAS and LAPACK libraries. - Many documentation improvements. *Contributors* A total of 113 people contributed to this release.

Best regards, Ashwin. Dear Ashwin and others, "Applied Photovoltaics" by Stuart Wenham is a really good book https://g.co/kgs/Uzthqd The Sandia PVPMC website is a great online reference for PV modelers https://pvpmc.sandia.gov/ PVCDROM is another very comprehensive website https://www.pveducation.org/ The pvlib documentation is also useful https://pvlib-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ Hopefully this is enough too get you and other folks startedstarted. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: Hi All, On behalf of the NumPy team I am pleased to announce that NumPy 1.16.6 has been released. This release fixes bugs reported against the 1.16.5 release and backports several enhancements from master that seem appropriate for an LTS series. The supported Python versions are 2.7, 3.5-3.7. This is the last release planned that supports Python 2.7. Wheels for this release can be downloaded from PyPI , source archives and release notes are available from Github . Downstream developers building this release should use Cython >= 0.29.2 and, if using OpenBLAS, OpenBLAS >= v0.3.7. *Highlights* - The ``np.testing.utils`` functions have been updated from 1.19.0-dev0. This improves the function documentation and error messages as well extending the ``assert_array_compare`` function to additional types. *Contributors* A total of 10 people contributed to this release. - CakeWithSteak - Charles Harris - Chris Burr - Eric Wieser - Fernando Saravia - Lars Grueter - Matti Picus - Maxwell Aladago - Qiming Sun - Warren Weckesser *Pull requests merged* A total of 14 pull requests were merged for this release. - `#14211 `__: BUG: Fix uint-overflow if padding with linear_ramp and negative... - `#14275 `__: BUG: fixing to allow unpickling of PY3 pickles from PY2 - `#14340 `__: BUG: Fix misuse of .names and .fields in various places (backport... - `#14423 `__: BUG: test, fix regression in converting to ctypes. - `#14434 `__: BUG: Fixed maximum relative error reporting in assert_allclose - `#14509 `__: BUG: Fix regression in boolean matmul. - `#14686 `__: BUG: properly define PyArray_DescrCheck - `#14853 `__: BLD: add 'apt update' to shippable - `#14854 `__: BUG: Fix _ctypes class circular reference.
